1. Kimbell Art Museum
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 1,657 reviews
Fort Worth's premier art museum, featuring paintings from international painters.
Reviewed By greekrabbit - Athens, Greece
I’m a museum maven and was expecting a good one. But the delight was in the details. For starters the Renoir exhibition has some old favorites last seen elsewhere. It was the ambiance of warm proximity to the master that was different. And better. Visiting old favorites in a laid back space gave them a fresh look. As for the facility: Our backstage look at the careful planning and meticulously maintained structures where a sparkling new Renzo Piano pavilion suppléments the grandiose Louis Kahn galleries was accompanied by a wealth of happily shared expertise from the brilliant Senior Deputy Director. It will be interesting indeed to revisit the Reniors back at their more formal Clark home. As got the Kimbell-Go for the architecture. Stay for the attitude. How to feel at home, even cozy, in the presence of genius.

Reviewed By georgehC6481UU - Fort Worth, United States
We've seen several different events at Bass Hall. Everything from The Nutcracker, to Mannheim Steamroller. This venue is amazing. It is truly a classy place with an intimate connection to the artists that perform. They have a varied and eclectic mix of shows while paying homage to the classics. We are never disappointed. The venue has great parking near by and is a short walk to sundance square. It is easy to make a night or afternoon of it, by enjoying a nice dinner near by or capping off the evening with an adult beverage.They have valet parking and a store inside usually themed to the show being presented.

The Amon Carter has just undergone a complete renovation of the museum itself. This facility renovation has provided a new platform to allow a redesign in the way the art is grouped and displayed along with some updated lighting. Amon Carter, the man, was a great supporter of Fort Worth and used his wealth to accumulate an extensive collection of American Art and display it for all to enjoy. Don't pass up the opportunity to view this collection.

The Train Heist was the second room we have experienced at the Fort Worth location. Both it and the Pirate Adventure were a lot of fun. Puzzles were engaging and just difficult enough. We really appreciated fact that when you reserve a time it belongs to your party alone. Only the person who made the reservation can add participants. Highly recommended!
8. Black Eyed Distilling Co.
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 14 reviews
The story behind the creation of BLK EYE Vodka started with a bold vision. With 100% Texas roots from farm to bottle, it’s the first vodka crafted by hand from black-eyed peas. The result is a smooth-tasting stroke of genius. At BlackEyed Distilling Co., we just believe an ultra premium experience should be evident from the first sip. Smooth. Subtle. Singular. That’s what being an original is all about.

I had herd about this vodka made with Black Eyed Peas. I said to myself,"There's no way someone made vodka out of delicious black eyed peas, not possible?" Well it was true folks! We loaded up and went to the Blackeyed Distillery in Fort Worth and it was amazing folks! Incredible flavor and very smooth vodka made and produced bib hand from farm fresh Texas Blackeyed Peas. The tour we took of the plant was amazing and and the folks form Blackeye where so much fun, crazy fun! This is a must see, much drink, and must do tour when your in Fort Worth or the DFW area. It's worth a 5 hour drive just to visit with these folks! Trey Chapman Foodie!
9. Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 5,287 reviews
Home to cowboys in addition to historic hotels and western-style shopping.
Reviewed By Millroe - Hitchin, United Kingdom
A great day out visiting the Historical Stockyard district in Fort Worth. A visit to the Wild West Show is also worth considering, we did, and thoroughly enjoyed seeing the different aspects of the Wild West, from lassoing and shooting demonstrations, horsemanship, long horn cattle, Bison and much much more. One of the horse riders was a 8 year old girl and she was brilliant. Afterwards there was a excellent parade of horses through the streets which included a Father Christmas in cowboy gear riding on a stagecoach pulled by Mules. And finally a visit to the actual stockyards is well worth doing to see the different long horns, and for $5 dollars you can be pictured sitting on one. A great day out.
